Welcome to my newest series of drabbles! I will be updating with a new drabble daily for at least the next six weeks or so. I hope you enjoy my stories, and, before I forget - yet again - I do not own, nor am I affiliated with anyone who owns, the setting, character, or world of Harry Potter, all of which belong chiefly to J. K. Rowling. This is a fanwork which I create for the pleasure of myself and others and which generates no profit for myself or anyone else.

The author would like to thank you for your continued support. Your review has been posted.
